Community Tasting Note

zoraster Likes this wine:

Tuesday, June 6, 2017 - At first this wine was super confusing to me.

Started from cellar temp: Smells earthy to me. Mushrooms, sod, wet tree bark. As I continued to smell it baking spices and vanilla and toffee come out to me. As my glass warmed from cellar temperature more of that red berry smell came out while background notes of that wet bark are still there.

The taste, on the other hand, delivers that cherry taste from the start. Jammy cherry is bright and present.

I might suggest serving this pinot noir at a higher temperature than you might otherwise. At 55-57F the nose and taste were almost too disjointed to be pleasant. Once warmed to (just guessing here) 60 or so it really started to come together in the glass for me.
